The Management Center Washington, DC, USA

Do you love building relationships with social justice leaders? Is networking your jam? Have people praised your ability to spot and hire superstars? The Management Center (TMC) is seeking a Director of Talent to ensure our recruiting and hiring processes continue to yield the amazing talent we need to achieve our mission (see below!). We’re looking for candidates who have a discerning eye for talent, who apply racially equitable and inclusive talent practices to finding great hires, who are excited to support the progressive and educational equity movements, and who love both the out front work of getting to know candidates AND the behind-the-scenes work process of systems management and improvement. Who We Are Our mission is to help social change leaders learn how to build and run more effective organizations so they can deliver great results. Founded in 2006, we’re now a 45+ person, $10 million organization (and growing!). We've helped shape the practices of hundreds of influential organizations and thousands of individual managers, with a particular focus on social justice organizations. Our clients work on issues – like promoting immigration reform, fighting for racial, economic and gender justice, advocating for educational equity, and protecting voting rights – where they face an inherently uphill battle and so must fight more effectively than their opponents if they are going to win. We aim to help them do that by making their organizations as effective as possible, by providing coaching, training, and publications for the broader field. The Director of Talent will be a critical and integral member of the team who will work across programs and sectors within the organization to grow our staff with colleagues who can help us meet our goals and achieve our mission. What You’ll Do As the demand for TMC’s services has grown, so too has our team -- and we still have more need for our services than we have people on the team to deliver, which is the reason why you’re reading this posting right now! You will report directly to TMC’s Partner for Talent & Equity, Valerie Evans, and be responsible for project managing the filling of immediate openings and supporting the efforts of growing our talent pipelines for future needs. The role will evolve over time as we continue to build out our teams, but in the first year the core of your work will be: Managing a significant portion of our hiring processes -- approximately 50% of your tim e Provide a welcoming experience for candidates so they feel valued throughout their process Ensure candidates, whether hired or not, leave their hiring experiences bigger fans of TMC Owning Administrative Team hiring processes and serving as a helper for other roles: Work with hiring managers to craft the must-haves, evaluations, job descriptions, interviews, and exercises for new roles Strategize on how to recruit and support hiring managers in their efforts Conduct weekly meetings with hiring managers to check status, troubleshoot, and strategize toward making a successful hire Owning job postings Serving as primary initial screener for most/all open roles Scheduling candidates and interviewers throughout hiring processes Managing TMC’s applicant tracking system (JazzHR) -- including training hiring teams on its use Supporting process improvements -- approximately 30% of your time Thought-partnering with the Partner, Talent & Equity and hiring managers regarding ongoing improvements and initiatives (e.g. revamping current hiring processes, developing hiring processes for new roles, creating and maintaining talent pipelines for future talent needs) Keeping an eye on the numbers to ensure no gaps in our hiring processes across racial and gender identity lines (or other identity differences) Proposing and implementing more equitable and inclusive solutions to our hiring challenges Supporting special projects/initiatives related to TMC’s internal racial equity and inclusion work Increasing our pipelines -- approximately 20% of your time Contribute to increasing our pipeline of applicants and candidates moving into final rounds who are people of color, indigenous people, and gender non-binary people Cultivating relationships with prospective candidates for entry- and mid-level roles (both for immediate and longer-term hiring plans) Conducting informational interviews Own our monthly hiring informational calls What Else You Should Know We are an equal opportunity employer, are committed to racial equity, and we make a particular effort to recruit people of color, indigenous people, and gender non-binary people to apply for open positions.
